COMMENTARY ON PRELIMINARY RESULTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 2012

CEO and CHAIRMANS REPORT

On behalf of the board of directors of MONEY3 Corporation Ltd (Money3), it is our pleasure to present the Annual Report for end of financial year 2012(FY 2012).

2012 Financial Highlights:

  • Revenue has increased by 15% to $15,494,893
  • Profit after tax increased by 5.1% to $2,525,840
  • Loan book has increased by 43.7% to 17,008,383
  • Net assets increased by 9.5% to $33,436,731
  • Net tangible assets per share increased by 4.5% to 37 cents

Operational activities

Money3 Corporation Ltd has 2 main focuses.

Money3 Branches

Money3 is a flexible and innovative provider of short term loans. Through our 34 branch network, Money3 provides credit to people who would not otherwise be able to access credit from mainstream lenders. Our key products are:

  • Line of Credit
    loans from $50 to $1000 for 1 month
  • Unsecure personal loans
    loans from $500 to $3000 for 3 to 12 months
  • Cheque cashing
  • International money transfer

This year included a thorough review of our business and the adoption of a detailed strategic plan. From that plan we have continued to expand our branch network with the addition of 10 new sites during the last financial year. Going forward we will be looking to expand our branch network into states where we lack presence. In Mid August 2012 we have opened our first store in Sydney and we plan to open several more in the next 12 months.

Through this branch network we are able to source leads for the auto division and in the car rental business 80% of all leads were sourced from the branch network. The branch network currently has in excess of 50,000 active customers.

M3 Auto Assist (Loan Centre and Car Leasing)

M3 Auto Assist contains all loans secured and provides the following products:

  • Secured vehicle loans
    loans from $5000 to $35000 for 18 months to 4 years
  • Car Rental
    vehicles valued from $3000 to $12000 for 2 to 3 years
  • Micro Motor loans
    loans for $2000 to $5000 for 1 to 2 years

This division has emerged over the past couple of years from the demand we had from our existing customers but also from a number of sub-prime customers who couldn't access funds to acquire vehicle finance. As the division developed we have not only helped the sub-prime market but have been able to lend to the prime customers, as mainstream financial providers tighten their credit criteria. Over the next 12 months we plan on not only serving our existing customer base but also to move up the credit curve to serve customers who are finding it hard to access credit from major banking institutions.

Money3 expects to see some significant opportunity for growth in this area and therefore in mind is in the process of obtaining a finance facility to enable this growth to occur. The directors believe that going forward this part of the business will become the driving force of Money3.

Slow Debt

As predicted in last year's annual report bad debt would reduce. As a percentage of revenue bad debt has reduced from 13.77% in FY11 to 9.84% in FY12. This is as a result of two factors, first being better credit controls being put in place and second being the mixture of business moving more towards the secured car lending business.


MONEY3 Corporation Limited

System Upgrade

Over the last 2 years Money3 has been working on sourcing and implementing a new integrated IT platform. Challenging as the rollout of new systems can be we can report that we are within 2 months of having all branches on the new platform. All staff have been above reproach in their commitment to this game changing upgrade and not one customer or sale has been lost. This system used by many securitized lenders will enable Money3 to meet the growth objectives as projected in our strategic plan.

Regulation

Both Houses of Parliament have now voted in support of the Credit Enhancement Bill (2012) which is awaiting Royal Assent. As a result of strong industry consultation and thorough review and recommendations by the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Corporations and Financial Services and Senate Economics Legislation Committee workable and meaningful regulations will give certainty to the 'legitimate short term small amount lending industry' as described by Minister Bill Shorten.

From 1st March 2013 more responsible lending obligations will apply. Many of these obligations have been standard practice at Money3. We are pleased that the government has adopted many of our recommendations which will protect consumers from themselves and unscrupulous lenders.

Commencing 1st July 2013 caps on small amount credit contracts will apply. For loans greater than 15 days and less than 12 months and less than $2000 the permitted establishment fee will be 20% with an allowable monthly fee of 4% on the amount of credit provided.

For loans between $2000 and $5000 for a period less than 2 years the permitted establishment fee is $400 and an annual interest rate of 48% per annum on a daily reducing balance applies. For all other loans the cap on charges is 48% per annum on the daily reducing balance.

As Money3 has anticipated these regulations for a number of years the impact on its business will be minimal as it continues to shift further towards larger secured loans. Currently 70% of assets are tied up in secured loans above $5000 and return on these assets is not affected by the caps while the legislated caps on smaller loans will allow a sustainable business model.

Under this model the Money3 branch network is set to grow through acquisition as smaller providers, unable to remain viable under the new regulations, exit the industry.

The most pleasing aspect of the lengthy legislative process is the bipartisan political support that short term credit is expensive to provide and that there is legitimate place for small amount lenders to fill the gaps for people who need a temporary cash injection.

Dividends

On 30th August 2012, the directors declared a fully franked final dividend to the holders of fully paid ordinary shares in respect of the financial year ended 30 June 2012. The final dividend payable of 2.25 cents per share brings the full year dividend to 4.00 cents per share fully franked.

Management Team

Over the past 12 months the company has acquired two businesses, set up a new car rental division, opened several new branches and expanded our broker network. The Directors would like to thank all the time that the staff have put in over the past 12 months and would like to thank them in advance for the time they will put in over the next 12 months.

Outlook

Branch Expansion

Money3 have considered several acquisition and growth opportunities for the FY2013. We have opened 4 new branches (Campbelltown in August 2012, Sunshine, Prospect and Morphett Vale in July 2012) and have expanded our customer base organically and via acquisition. With the certainty around the new federal legislation and the difficulty of smaller credit providers to remain viable we will continue to open new branches organically and/or by acquisition.

M3 Auto Assist (secured lending)

As announced earlier negotiations are well underway for a substantial debt facility to fund the growth of the secured loans business M3 Auto Assist. M3 Auto Assist which contains the secured car loan and car rental business currently represents 70% of our assets. Systems, personnel and delivery channels are in place and ready to be ramped up. The debt facility will allow this business to grow to its potential.

Yours sincerely,

NOTE 6. Segment information

A segment is a component of the consolidated entity that engages in business activities to provide products or services within a particular economic environment. The consolidated entity operates in one business segment, being providing financial services specialising in the delivery of small cash loans, personal loans, cheque cashing, equipment and motor vehicle rental, and international money transfer. The launch of the rental products may develop into a separate segment, this will be assessed in regards to its significance to the company. Currently the rental products are not a significant segment. The board of directors assess the operating performance of the group based on management reports that are prepared on this basis. Although the group has established operations in Singapore during the year these activities are not significant and therefore no geographical reporting has been included.
